The members of the Westboro Baptist Church will try again to straight up the Mormonism with one of his exemplifier protest to be held close to Pdte. Hinckley’s funeral. They plan to protest because of the ambiguous response and “tolerance” of Hinckley about homosexuality. Yeah the same ones that stated that AIDS is a blessing against homosexuality and the attacks of Sep/11 was a curse of God for America’s support of gays and the same ones that “rejoice” when a soldier came home in a coffin had announced that in Hinckley’s funeral protest at least one sign will state: “Hinckley is in hell.”
It’s interesting that groups so against Mormon teachings as the theosis who compare Mormons aspiration to become gods with the reason of why Satan was expel from heaven now are just taking the reason of their hate and adopt it and accept it at their convenience.
Such boldness of a certain knowledge to state if someone is in hell (Hinckley and homosexuals) or to announce what is God’s punishment and condemn people for their actions is exactly the Mormon point of view of what really happened in heaven : SOMONE TRYING TO TAKE GOD’S PLACE!
It’s interesting that members of the Westboro Baptist Church (and many other Baptist churches) act alike and think they are following Christ, it is just when I see this behavior that I step next to Joseph Smith to denounce the hypocrisy of the sectarianism of the Christian world, ” draw[ing] near to [God] with their lips” but their actions crucify again and again the Christ what is for me, that is not a Christian behavior, its not what the New Testament teaches, is not even human but just a bunch of people that because of fighting blindly, adopted and were converted in what they hated the most: their idea of what Mormonism is.
Arthur Schopenhauer once said a universal truth that apply to all:
“All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.“
That, beloved reader is what always happen and with this group is so evident except to themselves.

We are each helping to fulfill the destiny of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that was revealed to the Prophet Joseph Smith. In 1842 he prophesied:
“The Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs
may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is
done.”
Although the Church remained very small during the Prophet Joseph Smith’s lifetime, he knew that it was the kingdom of God on earth with a destiny to fill the whole earth with the truths of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We have seen the dramatic growth of the Church in recent years. We are privileged to live at a time when we can offer our faith and sacrifices in helping to establish
the kingdom of God, a kingdom that will stand forever.

Although there had been a “dramatic growth” in the Church, Is my personal opinion that Mormonism INSIDE the Christianity religion is a small branch and comparing the Restored Gospel with the “classic” religions it became a minuscule success…
